Chapter 5 - Chapter 4: Beginning of a long night

Chimwemwe's POV

It's been a roughly 12 days since I activated my quirk and I was off school for the past days as I had daily visits to the quirk hospital. I had to wear a special gloves for the time days since electricity kept shooting out of my body uncontrollably and luckily, they were low volts which only cause shook but not so safe for some electrical appliances but I still wore rubber gloves. The doctor said I had an electricity generating quirk which didn't surprise I did get Misaka Mikato after all.

But to honest with you all I was hoping for a hybrid quirk which mixed in my mum's hunter cat quirks from her side of the family. But it is a little strange I had golden slit-shaped pupils and I swear I had canines sometimes so maybe it was just a weird side effect of my family genes or something. I mean people in this world have some freaky appearances some not even related to their quirk.

Anyway, back to the matter at hand the doctor stated that I wear some insulating material till I can get proper control at least keep it under control. When the doctor told what my quirk all he said I was just able to produce lighting because you know he was talking to a child but when he explained it to aunt Minerva, he said that my body was producing large quantities of electricity due to my ions being super charged from his observation which affected both the electro-magnetic field around me. I was the which special glove the absorb the electricity I produce and insulate it.

Now after that whole ordeal my Gran came to congratulate me that I had a powerful quirk but I silently heard her say she wished that I could have more of my mum's quirk side of the family. After that we went for a celebration.

"Not bad Chicky you in a few day your control has gotten a little better." My Aunt clapped her hands. Was wearing one of those sexy woman gym clothes which am sure would have attracted a lot of niggas around if there were any.

We were in some really high maintenance gym which also looked like it had equipment for training some physical quirks. We have need coming here for 8 days now and am mostly focusing on keeping me electricity from shooting out my body every time I remove my gloves but also controlling how and where to properly shoot it out. So I was in an area which provides target practice most of the time but my power output wasn't that high yet.

Though from what I remember Misaka wasn't level 5 straight from the jump she had to work hard to get to reach the level she was and it was something I was willing to do.

Of course we did do other exercises while mine involved running, stretching and squats due to me still being young and aunt said it was to build a proper body for my quirk. She did other exercises too as a way off motivating me.

"Hey Auntie am been meaning to ask how did you get this place." I asked her while I was on my break.

"It took you eight whole days to ask me that question." She said in amusement while sitting next to me.

"W-well I was just curious." I mumbled under my breath my breath as she just chuckled and bopped my nose . "H-HEY S-STOP THAT!" I yelled as I held my nose my face a little flashed.

"HA! Your adorable Chicky." She laughed a little. "But a friend of mine let use the place while he was away for the time being as long as I don't break anything. It was a way of repaying part of a favor I did for him a job I did while back." She explained.

"Geez how big was this favor?"

"There a lot you don't know about me little man." She said trying to sound all mysterious and cool or something.

"By the way what is your job?" I asked.

"Oh am what you call a free lancer."

"That just gives me more questions." I mean you can be a free lancer in multiple job departments so which one did she do.

"And I'll properly tell you when you're older! Now get up breaks over!" She commanded and I just grumbled and got up and resumed my exercises.

Two days later.

I was currently just sleeping in the car taking a cat nap when I felt something smack me lightly on the head. I woke up and found that it was my Aunt's tail.

"Hey Chicky-Kitten how was your nap?" She asked and I grumbled.

"Really?" I questioned the nick name.

"What I wanted to try something new." She shrugged and I just stretched a little.

"Was that doctor sure you didn't haves some hybrid cat quirk in the mix." I heard her mumble.

We were currently heading towards a the party which Mrs. Sosala invited us at. Aunt M gave her new number and she informed her the party was taking place at Latitude 15 the party was said to truly start at 5:00. I still wondered why we were invited though.

Auntie was currently wearing one of those dresses which showed off one of her legs black in color, and hair was in wavy instead of her usual dreads. I had a blue dress shirt, black pants, sneakers and a tie on me.

"Alright little nigro remember to be on your best behavior."  She lectured me.

"Yes Aunt Minerva."

"Good and stop screwing with your tie." She slapped my hand away from my tie

"Damn." I muttered making Aunt slightly chop my head.

"Language Chicky but I have to agree it's been a while since I've been to a place like this." She said and started texting someone on her phone.

When we got out of the car I saw some expensive looking cars and some others were just arriving and people both men and women dressed for the occasion. From suits, dresses to custom tailored dashikis. We got inside and man it looked great inside.

"Oh Caçars you finally made it." I saw Mrs. Sosala coming towards us wearing a red dress. With her was man with short hair cut to the sides, beard and suit.

"Hey Jemima thanks for inviting us." Aunt thanked her. "Nice to meet you Mister Sosala my name is Minerva Caçar and this is my nephew Chimwemwe Caçar." She introduced us.

"Nice to meet you." I gave a small wave at him.

"Pleasure to meet you Mrs. Caçar am Mutale Sosala." He greeted back and shock Aunt's hand.

"Oh no it's just Ms. am not married." She chuckled and the man's eyes widened a bit.

"Are you serious?" He asked a little shocked.

"That was my similar reaction sweetie. I couldn't believe a beautiful woman like her didn't have someone in her life." Mrs. Sosala giggled a bit.

"Yes very beautiful." He mumbled but Aunt and I heard that and she just raised her brow a bit. "Hello there you must be Chimwemwe my daughter sure does love complaining about you." He joked and he offered a hand shake and I took it.

"CHIMWEMWE YOU'LL HERE!!" Speaking of his daughter Suiw ran towards us and hugged me which I patted her back awkwardly and than separated from her. She wore a red dress and now with a blue gem on it. "I heard the reason you weren't going to school was because you got your quirk so what is it!?" She asked excited.

"Oh I produce electricity." I answered simply told her seeing no harm in it.

"What like turning on light bulbs or something boring." She said not sounding impressed.

"I least I don't just make stupid rocks." I said back now normally I wouldn't let that get to me but it was hard to control l most of my impulses in this child body.

"HEY THERE NOT STUPID THERE PRETTY!" She said and stuck out her tongue and I just shrugged. "HEY THEY AR-.. Hey cool gloves what are they for!" She said looking at my gloves in awe.

'THAT WAS FAST!' I thought as she always did change mods like a switch at to be honest it really amazed me from time to time. The adults just looked at the scene in amusement.

"Anyway I think I see Ceramic and Grey hippo over there." Aunt pointed out to the number four and number six heroes in the country.

"Yes as you we did hire some good security but since some politicians are here as well they decided to also hire some heroes but also some of the best in the country." When Mr. Sosala  said that I could think on one phrase.

"Just what the hell is this party for anyway." I said out loud.

Sometime later

I was at a table with Auntie, Mrs Sosala and Suiw nursing a bump on my head courtesy of my dear Aunt because of my swearing. Mr. Sosala went to talk to some minister or something.

"Hey Suiw why don't you and Chimwemwe to the kids room for now am pretty sure you both are bored now." Mrs Sosala told us.

"Okay come on Chimwemwe!" She said excitedly and dragged me off.

"I can walk." I told her but it went in one ear and came out in the other.

Third person POV

"So what do you think of the banquet so far Minerva?" She asked the other woman.

"Its very nice Jemima." She answered. Jemima told her that the event was and I was one of her husband's way into getting into politics. She didn't know much about politics but she knew this had to be expensive as shit. "Not that I don't appreciate the invitation by why did you really invite me here don't you have friends in these lanes you could be with?"

"Oh I do and some of them are here but invited you for two reasons the first was that Suiw has an actual friend with her as ever time I leave her with the kids here there times she gets along with them others it's a disaster. The second and main one is that I want you to take a look there." She pointed at pointed at a section where it was a gallery showing pictures of beautiful women.

"Why is that here?" Minerva asked as this was a weird to advertise her modeling business.

"Oh I thought it would be a nice place to attract potential investors. But anyway when you look at the pictures what don't you see." Jemima asked her to wish Minerva looked hard with her enhanced eyes.

"Um there's no signs of mutant quirk user?" She gave her best guess.

"Exactly that's where you come in I wanted to request that you work for my agency." Jemima asked her getting Minerva by surprise.

"What why!" She was a little flabbergasted.

"Come now Minerva your very beautiful plus those cheetah like features only seem to add more to it. May be it will boast the moral of those with mutant quirks showing them they can be beautiful." She said solemnly.

"I hope this doesn't sound too abrasive but why do you care. Is it some stunt to boast your companies credibility?" Minerva's eyes narrowed at Jemima.

"NO!" She looked hurt and offended. "You see when I was younger I had a friend by the name Susan she had a mutant quirk which gave her grow eyes all over her body, she was a sweet girl but was a victim to harsh bulling and she took her own life recently. She was a great friend to me and was there for me in my low points but I wasn't there for her and didn't recognize her struggles, so this special addition is a way to pay tribute to her showing mutant quirks can also be beautiful but I tried to recruit some mutant quirk welders before but they were too frightened to do it." She explained with a very sorrowful face.

"If you also refuse than I understand." She said sadly. Thank god that the people and music was loud enough for them to avoid attention.

'It's an honorable goal but naïve guess she's just trying her best in the area she knows best at.' Minerva sighed discrimination against mutant quirk wielders and quirkless was a very complex topic in any country and there was no simply solution towards it and she accepted that long ago.

"I'll think about it." She said getting the woman to smile brightly at her.

"Thank you." Minerva just nodded. "But enough about this depressing topic tell me more about yourself Minerva." Jemima said going back to pleasant demeanor in a blink like the previous heavy topic didn't take place.

'SHE SWITCHED HER MOD FAST!" And to say that amazed her out a bit but was glad the Jemima was in a better mod now even though see still some regret in her eyes.

In another room

Two men who were dressed as security guards where alone discussing matters.

"Shit this party is full of guards, some heroes and even too top heroes." One of them cursed.

"Don't worry like the boss said all we have to do is observe than report to him." The other said dialing his phone. " Hello boss I got the status report."

The night was about to get wild.
